'They've been tipped for the top by the people in the know (That's us by the way), and with a sound thats waves between being hypnotically dancy and head bangingly full on rock, can you blame us? No, we didn't think so...' - Tourdates - Issue 52, 14 Aug - 11 Sept, 2009
The PopJunkie Xmas party - Last gig of the year at Metro with Sixty Second Silence preview and review!!! Here is a review of us at PopJunkie TV!!!... "... Anyway, before it’s too late, get yourself down to Metro on December
23, to see one of our current favourite London bands play - indie
electro blues duo Sixty Second Silence.
With influences as diverse as Pixies, The Cure, Led Zep, The Small
Faces, Hot Chip and LCD Soundsystem, they make a hell of a racket for
a two-piece.
Just lately, they sound like The White Stripes and Second Coming-era
Stone Roses jamming with New Order. Yup - told you they were good.
Sequencer lines and tight as f*** drumming collides with dirty blues
guitar riffs, moody, retro keyboard sounds and ’80s overcoat misery.
Earlier in the year, PopJunkie described them as:”Indie meets electro
in a totally non-contrived way…just wicked little loops, rock ‘n’
roll guitars and banging drums”.
Pray silence, please."
The Tube Club http://www.thetubeclub.co.uk/ Sixty Second Silence are our new tip for 2008/09. Someone out there could make a load of dosh from these. If you can imagine the Stone Roses reborn as great musicians and then you'd have this lot. The sounds they made was hypnotic and dancey but without losing sight of the tunes. by the time they went on, most of the crowd were hammered and loving every minute of it. A definate must see - The Tube Club http://www.thetubeclub.co.uk/
